Pulp Friction 2014

review 1: So far this is my favorite of the Pulp Friction 2014 series. I must admit I'm new to T.A. Webb but will certainly look for more from this author.Charlie is the eldest son in the construction company Turner & Sons but at the death of his father ten years ago he gave up his lover, home and plans to move back in with his mother and younger brother. Now, with the company doing well and nearing his 30th birthday his mother kicks him out. His friend Siggy introduces him to Scott so he can get a place at Mountain Shadows and makes a deal for lower rent to do some work at the lodge and surrounding cabins.Charlie's current job is for Amos Greene at Greene Gallery, extending the gallery into the available space next door.There is instant lust and attraction between Charlie and Amos ... morebut Amos tends to be an ass and reminds Charlie he is 'the help'.While getting the job complete, trying to keep his younger brother Damon on the right track, spreading his wings on his own again, so to speak he cannot fight his attraction to the stiff shirted Amos.
review 2: 2.75I don't know what Pulpfriction 2014 is but I'm guessing this story is a part of series of books. Heads up this read ends in a cliffhanger. Insert sad face emoticon. I'm not sure if Webb is finishing this pair or if someone else is picking it up. I'll have to check on that. Charlie is 29, living with his mother and little brother. He moved back home to help his mom after his father died and has been running the family construction business since he left college when he was nineteen. He meets Amos, a client, and the two have a bit of fling. There's no HEA here or really HFN either. While I liked Charlie, Amos is more of a mystery. I'm not sure if Amos has history from the previous books but as standalone here he's a major dick to Charlie. I'm curious how their relationship will play out. There are some intense family dynamic scenes with Charlie and his brother Damon which I enjoyed quite a bit but...cliffhanger. I'll read the next story to find out what happens but I wish that I had known this didn't resolve anything because I would have waited. less
